It is open to institutions and commercial organizations interested in working with Sun Microsystems, Inc. in learning and sharing practical experiences in the following:
- Comparison of high-level OAIS architectures, services-oriented architecture work, and use cases
- Sharing of best practices and software code
- Cooperation on standard, open, 'in-a-box' solutions around repository technologies
- Review of storage architectures and trends and their relation to preservation and archiving architectures and eResearch data set management
- Discussion of the uses of commercial third party and community-developed solutions
The organization is focused on sharing open computing solutions and best practices. But while sharing information about the state-of-the-art developments in standards and open source is important, this is not a standards-setting organization. It is a place to share practical experiences, successes, pain points, and potential topics for more collaboration. Sun does reserve the right to exclude direct competitors from the conference proceedings.
Any questions can be sent to Art Pasquinelli, Education Market Strategist Sun Global Edcation and Research; art.pasquinelli@sun.com.The full agenda and conference details are here:
